Anyone been through schiphol airport recently
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has been through the airport in the last week or so and has there been anything interesting. Going through there next week but when I’ve rang up they said they cannot talk models over the phone Thanks |

Amsterdam. Who knows. The traffic from non EU has diminished considerably but i am not sure that’s enough to increase your chances of finding something nice.

I was in Schiphol last week. Everything interesting is still closed down. Plenty of places to buy overpriced cheese and stroopwaffels though....

Your chances at Schiphol are worse then ever. Until about two years ago they actually put even the most wanted pieces (like SS Daytona, blye Sky)in the displays resulting in a sell usually within 1 hour. It was rare , but it did happen actually! Now that they are aware of the fact that so many frequent flyers were hunting for quick flip profits and even massive amounts of local airline crew doing that they keep them in the back and make getting these models just as hard (impossible) like any normal non aiport AD. The multiple store airport AD is operated by Gassan and their main business are diamonds and since that market collapsed due to missing (Asian) tourists they need to be very very careful who are allowed to pickup the hot SS piece and maybe require you to pickup another less popular piece as well but to be honest there have not been to many reports about that yet.

I got a BB58 Navy and Tudor BB GMT on the same day last month in Schiphol Airport. Previously purchased a date just 41 blue dial from there too. I regret that I sold the Datejust.
